Happy Monday! Hopefully, you've all had a great weekend. I somehow managed to score a four day weekend, so I've had a fabulous weekend 😉 I'm back to share week sixteen in my 2017 Project Life album.

I'm not much of a selfie taker, but when I do, I usually turn to Snapchat to take them. I feel a lot cuter as a bunny, or some other silly filter, than I do as my regular self. Lol. I keep telling the girls to send me Snapchat photos to include in the album, but they never think to do it. So sometimes, if they send me a Snapchat, and I think it will make a fun addition to our album, I screenshot it. 

I'm also not great at taking selfies like the one above. I was sitting on the couch, and wanted to take a pic of my favorite jammies. I'm not even kidding when I say I must have spent 20 minutes trying to get a photo that I liked, and it took at least 50+ shots to get it. I'd like to think eventually I'd get better at them, but I don't.

I think I've mentioned before that I have a large stash of Studio Calico PL cards. They're a random mix of cards, as opposed to pulling out a specific Project Life collection or a collection from other manufactures, like Simple Stories or WRMK. So I try and browse thru them whenever I'm looking for filler cards for my weekly spreads.

Just in case something will work. And this "meh" card worked perfectly, to tie in with the photo and journaling card above it. I simply added some washi tape to the top and bottom, and some older chipboard letters to the center. 

The kraft 3×4 filler card above is also from Studio Calico. My "16-17' recorded shows" isn't really the accurate description of the photo below it. But the photo is of the travelers notebook project I did documenting all my favorite shows of the 2016-2017' TV season. So I guess it worked out ok. 

Still making good use of the million smaller stickers I have in my stash, that never seemed to get used on layouts. Yet they work so perfectly for pocket pages.

You know, I usually text Alyssa and ask her for some facts to go along with her pics. But if I need more info, to fill a journaling card, I will do my best to add to it. But in doing so, I sometimes get my facts wrong. Like above. Turns out, two members received Panhellenic scholarships. I thought it was just Alyssa that got one, since she was the only one with a "big check'. And yes, she got to keep that, and it's sort of cool!
